P-TECH Employer Engagement Manager
Purpose of Position: The P-TECH Employer Engagement Manager will play a key role in effective stakeholder support and the successful implementation of programme learning activities particularly in relation to industry partner involvement. This includes - but is not limited to - the support and coordination of mentoring relationships, work placement initiatives, organisation of guest speakers and industry partner inputs into the P-TECH programme. P-TECH programme : P-TECH is a highly innovative educational initiative that combines post-primary school with elements of higher education and workplace experiences with a view to building a range of 21st Century skills for students in the North-East Inner City (NEIC). P-TECH operates through a three-way partnership between schools, higher/further education institutions and industry partners. It includes a structured workplace learning strand with mentoring, worksite visits, speakers, and project days and a range of authentic learning opportunities to develop business and digital competencies including IT skills, digital literacy, emerging technologies, project management skills, communication skills, teamwork and problem-solving.
